Business Loan from Middlesex Savings Bank Given to Confectionery Manufacturing From Purchased Chocolate Company

Middlesex Savings Bank is a source for SBA loans that have lower down payments and longer repayment terms than many other financing options. To help you understand SBA loans, we've featured one Massachusetts entrepreneur who tapped into the power of SBA loans.

This growing company received financial assistance through the SBA's lending programs back in 2003. They applied for an SBA loan with Middlesex Savings Bank, out of Natick, Massachusetts. The loan was granted and they received $100,000 to help grow their Franklin, Massachusetts business.

SBA 7(a) Loans can be used for nearly any business purpose, such as commercial real estate, construction or renovation for owner-users, business acquisition and start-up, franchise refinancing, refinancing for existing debt, equipment purchases, working capital, and inventory.

SBA loan guarantees are not loans per se. The SBA simply guarantees the loan, but banks and other lending institutions grant you the loan and give you the money. So, just as this company walked into Middlesex Savings Bank and applied for an SBA loan, you have to do the same thing. You need to demonstrate business strength and potential, but the sooner you start, the faster you'll get the money if you qualify!
